We should really apply this to everyone, have AI read all your public info, and you get a score like debt. If your score is too low or nonexistent, we exclude you from society, or maybe even arrest you. Our criminal justice system is too biased toward action, and not enough towards potential action. It’s like. We spend 90% of our time on violent crime, 9% on white collar crime, and the amount of time we spend on thought crimes basically rounds to zero. WTF?

This is an ironic post, right? If not, then wow... If yes, then I'm all for it. The sad thing is we live in times I really don't know if you're serious.

The devil is in the details, something had to happen after 9/11, but the PATRIOT act and invading Iraq weren't it. Likewise, yes, we should have higher standards on immigration, but maybe letting Palantir run wild and not letting people who don't have social media into the country isn't the solution.

Way too much of our political debate is binary.
